CYPRUS: Clothing Sector Targets UK
Eleven Cypriot companies exhibited in this week’s Level 2 show, Excel, bringing a wide range of ready-to-wear clothing. Knitwear, shirts and trousers, which have proved popular in Europe, were in the spotlight this year. Andreas Pavlou, commercial attaché at the Cyprus High Commission Trade Centre in London, said: “The UK has always been a priority export market for the Cyprus clothing industry. The UK export market accounts for approximately £13m per annum, which is 50 per cent of our clothing export market each year.
